Strategy: Using a time filter to limit trading hours

[NinjaTrader_JoshP]

A common observation many traders have made is that certain hours of the day are more volatile than others.
Depending on the trader’s style they may want to trade only during the volatile hours of the day or the less volatile days of the week.

Key concepts in this example:

• Comparing days of the week
• Comparing the time of day
